Speaker Johnson says he’s going to request Ethics Committee not release Gaetz report
House Speaker Mike Johnson said on Friday that he does not think a House Ethics Committee report on allegations related to Matt Gaetz should be released and is “going to strongly request that the Ethics Committee not issue the report.”
Speaker Johnson can go fuck himself.
Nah. His son will get an alert and that will just be even weirder.
Someone with a shred of ethics on this ethics committee better fucking leak this.
Here ya go people, these are the ones you gotta call:
Democrats
Ranking Member Susan Wild, Pennsylvania
Veronica Escobar, Texas
Mark DeSaulnier, California
Deborah K. Ross, North Carolina
Glenn F. Ivey, Maryland
Wild is out next year, so just maybe. Come on, Susan, put that donation to work!
"People can't know who we are and all the crimes we commit, it would be devastating!"
Along the same lines, "we've investigated ourselves and our allies and we cannot allow the report to see the light of day ".
I love how he throws up the excuse, "...that is not the way we do things in the House,..." as tho' propriety or social or even governmental norms mean anything whatsoever to him or the rest of the GOP.
And then this reversal after nearly 24 hours go by, "Johnson’s comments also mark a reversal after he said on Thursday, “the speaker is not involved with what happens in ethics. Lots of important reasons for that.”Johnson’s comments also mark a reversal after he said on Thursday, “the speaker is not involved with what happens in ethics. Lots of important reasons for that.”
Only needs to "make sense" in the moment. And only to certain people. Everyone else can get fucked. And don't be bringing up my past statements! (these are not my own personal beliefs)
Of note is that he had a sit-down with Dear Leader before that 180 on "...the speaker is not involved with what happens in ethics. Lots of important reasons for that."
Trumps just testing the waters to see which Congressmen are loyal and which he still needs to get some kompromat on, so he's not stopped when he enacts the real fasc-ie stuff.
